With one last breath
and strength from within
new steps I take

no soft left to poke,
just a space that was filled
with lies once spoke.
The faded scars
now hard to see;
my heart now cleared
of broken debris.
Hear me,
sing my own swan song,
mine to accompany me
as I travel along
the next half that is ahead of me.
Unchained!
Unbound!
Unshackled!
Free!
